Questions I wish I could ask him

Ex-Boyfriend sent me an email yesterday out of the blue.

He asked how I was doing and I sent back a short small-talk email. One that said basically that I was hibernating for the winter, that the dog was great, that I’m not doing a show right now…blah blah blah.

He immediately sent back an email updating me on his life and right then it was clear that the only reason he asked about me was so that he could tell me about himself.

“I got a new car!”

“I have a great new job!”

“My girlfriend is awesome and I hope it lasts forever!”

“She wants to move back to the west coast after school, but I don’t want to. Hopefully she’ll stay here!”

Excuse me, but what do you expect me to say to all that?

“Awesome, I’m so glad you have all your shit together when my life is clearly falling apart?”

Or do you need me to tell you that of course your sweet girlfriend will decide to stay here for you?

Or should I beg you not to go?

I mean, really.

What do you want from me?

And why can’t you just leave me alone at least until I figure out what the hell I want.

Is that so much to ask?

  1. You shouldn't have answered back. That's rule number one. Or maybe number tow. Screw it. I know there's a rule there somewhere.

  2. I agree with Christina. Don't answer back. All he wants is validation. Boys are crap! And so obvious, what a jerk.
